Mykonos Holidays

Mykonos

Mykonos has it all - gorg beaches, an epic party scene and an iconic coastline that you've probably seen on Insta..

Highlights

  • Beaut backdrops (used in a number of films - including Bourne Identity!)

  • Home to 'Little Venice' with coloured coastal houses and sunset views

  • Beaches for days (good luck picking one!)

  • Boomin' nightlife for your late-night antics

  • Mykonos Town - with streets so pretty it's like stepping into a Pinterest board

🤩 Fun fact: there's a colour-code rule where all windows and doors must be painted either blue, green or red in Mykonos. That explains how the place is so aesthetic!

What are the best beaches in Mykonos?

They might have the nightlife scene down, but Mykonos holidays know exactly how to deliver the chilled vibes too. Dreamy beaches are like a love language here, whether you're looking for somewhere to dance and slurp cocktails, or somewhere to plonk down a towel and dive into your beach read. Whatever you fancy, give these Greek spots a whirl:

  • Paradise Beach - just like the name suggests, this flat, sandy beach is a real hotspot, popping off with watersports, beach bars for your midday spritz, and even handy facilities like changing rooms and Wi-Fi

  • Psarou Beach - celeb-spotters, this is your spot. This luxey beach has gorgeous waters for dipping into, a whole menu of watersports to try your hand at, a bunch of seaside restaurants and sun lounger rental that's a bit on the spenny side, but totally worth it

  • Elia Beach - this one's a biggie (the biggest on the island), and it doesn't scrimp on the goods, with soft sands, clear waters and plenty of space to flop down a towel

  • Super Paradise Beach - here just to one-up the OG Paradise Beach, this place brings the inclusive vibes (it's a firm fave among the LGBTQ+ crew), gorg views and epic parties once the DJs hit the decks

  • Ornos Beach - snug, scenic and stacked with all the essentials - this family-friendly cove is sheltered enough for a quiet swim, but still within easy reach of nearby seafood tavernas

  • Paraga Beach - a 2-in-1 kinda beach, with two sandy stretches divided by a rocky headland. Its curved shape shelters it from the blustery winds, making it a top pick for quiet swims, and less so for wind sports

What are the top hotels in Mykonos?

From dozing off next to a boujee infinity pool to kicking back in an all-inclusive swanky suite, Mykonos hotels know how to holiday in style. Because if you can't wake up to the sound of the sea on holiday, when can you? Check out these bangin' hotels:

  • Kamari - a modern, beachfront gem with swish rooms where you can zone out in style, pools for you and the kiddos, a poolside bar for your cocktail fix, and a Jacuzzi for a cheeky dip

  • Kivotos Hotel Mykonos - located right along its own private beach with a choice of restaurants to tickle your taste buds, 5 pools to dunk into, and an on-site spa for the ultimate self-care sesh

  • Mykonos Beach - exactly what it says on the tin - a beachfront hotel with delish dining options, a gorgeous infinity pool, a steamy sauna and even a library if you fancy getting your read on

  • Grecotel Mykonos Blu Hotel - nothing less than 5-star vibes here, with views of Psarou Beach, a mega infinity pool, a rooftop bar (as if the views weren't already enough), and on-site yoga classes so you can find your zen

  • Mykonos Grand Resort - would be rude not to mention this all-singing, all-dancing resort with everything on site - from an outdoor pool and spa centre to tennis courts, a classy restaurant and even a wine cellar. Chin chin!

  • Ostraco Luxury Suites - dip into the luxe life with a super chilled pool area, sea views and a cocktail bar for your evening (or afternoon, it's 5 O'clock somewhere) tipple
